After 'not' feeding the Dolphins this morning we travelled the 160km back out to the main Coastal Highway. On the way out we stopped at Eagle Bluff which was an 8km return drive on a corrugated road. As we got out of the car the wind almost blew us back in again, wow it was cyclonic, really! Beautiful outlook though, very rugged coastline, and there is a board walk along the cliff face, which on a nice day would be a lovely walk. We headed out again and then stopped off at Shell Beach which is entirely made up of tiny shells, quite spectacular with crystal clear water, just a beautiful sheltered spot! Anyway it was time to make tracks as we still had about 350km to go and it was nearly midday. Once we were on the Coastal Highway again we had a tail wind most of the time which helped our speed and fuel consumption. About 200km south we noticed that the landscape started to change quite dramatically from the low shrub, red dirt desert like landscape to large Gum Trees, Conifers, colourful natives and hills, it was awesome, we had left the Gascoyne and entered the Wheat Belt. Soon after this we turned off towards the coast and the Kalbarri National Park. Coming into Kalbarri Township was a beautiful drive, looking down over Kalbarri right on the coast overlooking the ocean, it is very picturesque! We plan to stay here for three nights to explore the National Park. Should be great!
